What is the most scientifically sound "weight loss myth" you see people still falling for?
Every time I scroll through social media, I see wild claims about weight loss that completely ignore basic human physiology. Things like "eating after 8 PM ruins your metabolism," "you need a juice cleanse to jumpstart fat loss," or "starvation mode will make you gain weight on 1,000 calories."
While these ideas are easily debunked by basic nutrition science, they still seem deeply embedded in mainstream diet culture.
What is the biggest, most frustrating myth you frequently encounter when people talk about losing weight? On the flip side, what is one genuinely underrated, evidence-based strategy that more people should focus on instead?
